One of the many things I find refreshing about this thread is how many people are so hacked off by the corporate sh1t3 :-)

Is that because the corporate sh1t3 exists, or that people are hacked off by it?

I've had enough of it, from soup to nuts.

I can only dream of being in such a financial situation and, if I was, there would be no second thought about it and employed work would be a distant memory. I am all for wealth accumulation but with that much at that age, I would not for a second consider adding any further stress to my life with pressures of work (which I assume could be quite high as you clearly earn a very, very decent salary). Noone knows what health issues they may encounter at any age so I would just enjoy the retirement and spend much time relaxing in very warm and picturesque places.

I find it curious- how come everybody is hacked by it but it still exists and reportedly gets worse. It can not get worse with every generation forever so are there any cycles in management ? Or is it the same and everybody is more sensitive to it as they age ?

No one ever admits to committing it. So it must be thought to be worse than, say, sexually molesting people at work. That is sometimes admitted to.

but that in itself is a problem - some - far too many it seems - people simply don't know how to enjoy themselves in retirement, often because they have few hobbies or pastimes and more importantly none that they can call 'passions'.
Hence looking forwards to retirement becomes daunting and therefore putting it off and saying 'one more year' is the soft option.

Absolutely.

I'm 51 and counting every day. If I could access my SIPP now I'd quit tomorrow.

I used to love my work but now hate it.

Or they have forgotten how to enjoy themselves......so where is the playbook to help remember how to have fun??
